#334 Gambling, Addiction, Murder, Fame and Healing

💬”When I was eight, I was staying in a one-bedroom apartment with my dad and he was shot dead, sleeping next to me.”

💬”I lost six and a half million gambling.”

💬”I had twenty-three knee operations.”

💬”To get off cigarettes (having started smoking in his thirties), I tried cigars and quickly wound up smoking forty a day.”

💬”I was a dickhead.”

I have no idea how, but David Schwarz is one of the most positive and optimistic people I know. And I know a few. To say he has had an interesting life is like saying that Michael Jordan wasn’t bad at basketball. His journey has been one of pain and pleasure, suffering and survival, truth and lies, addiction and recovery, fame and f*cks ups and ultimately, one of love, hope and laughter. Enjoy.
